This here I totally agree. I am thankful that I got all my job offers through this channel and have to admit the pay has been satisfying. Get your CVs to reputable agents and one day you might get a call with an opportunity that is difficult to turn down.
I will not share my current  salary here as I don't want to brag, but I am very much thankful for what I am getting.
I am still at Engineer level, though. Not yet senior, mind you. But I earn enough to sustain my family (but we don't live lavishly, though. We save for our future).

i will follow your advice if you reveal your salary + allowance. tongue.gif

Hi all. I am presently working as a lecturer in a private uni at my hometown in perak. Current gross salary is 4.9k. I have been thinking of switching careers and so started applying for jobs some three weeks ago. So far, i have attended interviews with 2 companies in the klang valley and have another scheduled for next monday. Yesterday i received an offer from one of the firms i had met earlier this week... rm5.9k gross.

I am turning 31 later this year and have been contemplating a change of career to the industry/corporate environment. My wife who also teaches at the same uni is also looking for a job in klang valley so we are thinking of relocating some time later this year. Our present commitment includes paying monthly installments for our house in ipoh and the one myvi which we share.

Hope to get some advice whether i should accept it and put in my resignation right away. If you have questions, just ask and i will reply. Thanks in advance for sharing your opinions.

In my opinion, having extra 1k in klang valley will make you poorer than staying in ipoh. Plan your financial carefully so you wouldnt lose more money. You can job hop later on and get better salary if you want.

But if your passion in lecturing gone already, it is up to you to move. Ask yourself, you want to teach and do research or be in the industry?

Big salary doesn't always good if the new job is not up to your expectation. Take the risk or just stay.
